Question

________ is possible given our increased use of fertilizers and technology for agriculture

Answer 1

Explanation:

Farmers ' overuse of fertilizers and pesticides to improve crop yields is harmful to the environment and people's health. The use of fertilizers and pesticides has contributed to climate, water, and soil pollution problems. The nitrous oxide (N2O) formed by microbial activity on inorganic soil fertilizers allows ozone layer layer to deplete, and serves as a barrier against damaging UV rays emanating from the light.

Fertilizers that are added to the soil are discharged to rivers and lakes by rainwater which causes water pollution. The trend of marine bodies nitrogen accumulation is known as eutrophication, which deteriorates the quality of the water contributing to fish death.
